Harrisburg Truck Accident Lawyers

Accidents involving tractor-trailers tend to result in catastrophic and fatal truck injuries because of the weight and size of trucks, especially compared with much lighter and smaller automobiles or motorcycles. Pittsburgh personal injury lawyers at The Moyles Law Firm represents the injured and family members of those killed by the negligence of drivers and trucking companies.

Common causes of truck and tractor-trailer accidents

Even if you are a careful driver, you are at risk of tractor-trailer collisions. Typical causes of truck accidents are outside your control. Long-haul drivers commonly suffer from sleep deprivation. These 18-wheelers lack maneuverability, and one careless mistake can lead to disaster. Mechanical defects in your car or the truck can cause an unavoidable collision. Pittsburgh personal injury lawyer, Jim Moyles, can assist you in cases involving:

Liability of multiple parties

Multiple parties are often responsible for a trucking accident. As an experienced 18-wheeler wreck lawyer, Jim diligently researches your case to identify and include all liable parties. Your personal injury case may involve a negligent:

Truck driver

Owner of the tractor and trailer

Lessee of the tractor and trailer

Manufacturer of vehicles, equipment or parts

Truck’s cargo shipping company

Construction company that created roadway obstructions

Municipality that failed to maintain safe roadways

Challenging those with deep pockets

Trucking companies typically maintain risk management departments that act immediately when collisions involving their trucks and drivers occur. They quickly appear on the scene to minimize their liability and build a defense before a lawsuit is even filed. Jim is a lawyer who matches the 18-wheeler companies’ perseverance and diligence when building your case. He promptly collects evidence, photographs the accident site, interviews witnesses to learn the facts and constructs a solid strategy based on the truth. Applying his 30 years of experience, Jim perseveres against large corporations to win you the compensation you deserve.

Defending trucking companies and long-haul drivers who have acted responsibly

As the former counsel of the Pennsylvania Motor Truck Association (PMTA), Jim gained substantial insight useful to a tractor-trailer accident attorney. He recognizes the extensive measures responsible companies and drivers take to minimize risks and increase safety on the roadway. He represents drivers who have exercised reasonable care and defends corporations who have acted in the best interest of their employees, the public and other drivers.

–Client testimonial

My Step Father suffered from Alzheimer's and was confined to a nursing home. The nursing home failed to perform mandatory skin checks after bathing for signs of open wounds or signs of infection. He was hospitalized and ultimately passed from a urinary tract infection. The nursing home staff was negligent in detecting the severe infection. I contacted Mr. Moyles to pursue the nursing home for negligence and wrongful death. He handled everything with great professionalism and aided our family through what was a very difficult time. I would recommend Mr. Moyles to anyone who looking for a firm that is clearly on your side.

Mr. Moyles agreed to take on my unique, personal injury case after 2 other attorneys had passed on it. He and his staff were very professional and approachable. They kept me informed about what was happening, and what to expect next, throughout the entire process. I am receiving an equitable settlement in just under a year since I first met with Mr. Moyles. I would highly recommend this law firm.
